Chinchalero Torpeditos Cigar - 1 Single by Nathan

Now, this came as one hell of a surprise given the low price tag, but only based on other, bad 'cheap' experiences. Don't be fooled by the low cost Chinchalero, it's a pleasant and remarkably flavoursome smoke. Admittedly it's a long way off from any true Cuban, but as a stand alone it is more than capable of holding its own. Lasted around 40 minutes, during which I had hints of floral, light earth, and tea. Managed to take it down pretty much to the nub and behaved impeccably, with no lip burn and minimal bitterness. Makes a pleasant post meal, midweek lighter smoke, delivers all you could ask from a stick in this price range, and earns itself a place in my humidor as a definite 'why not?'

Cohiba Panetelas Cigar - 1 Single by Nathan

I found this cigar very hard work, and for little gain. The flavour was lacklustre, and the second half was both too hot and too bitter for my taste. I'm not sure that this stick quite warrants the typically high cohiba price of its colleagues.

Charatan Corona Cigar - 1 Single by alex

This a nice cigar for the money I.e. flavour, taste and aroma. I just did not want to put it out. I have ordered a Robusto made by these people and i can not wait to smoke it.

Chinchalero Picadillos Cigar - 1 Single by alex

Nice smoke if only it was a inch or two longer, then this would of been a even better smoke. As it finished to soon.

Cuaba Tradicionales Cigar - 1 Single by Nathan

A confusing start, courtesy of the design of the cigar, I struggled to get any even burning within the first third and subsequently spent more time playing than enjoying. Second part of this cigar was very pleasing, however, with hints of all I could describe as 'sweet and earthy' flavours, that may not sound that good, but work incredibly well with a nice cuban rum. The smoke increased in complexity as I worked though it, but before I knew it I was down to the stub, pining for an extra third, but not disappointed with what I'd had. Give it a whirl, you could easily spend £7.50 on something far worse, I assure you...
